while i like JS and the dailey show, sometimes his biasness comes into play... he didn't say or show any of the cop killing "poetry", or anything about killing bush lyrics, he just promoted it a wholesome, family affair... which it probably will be, but still, is he the only black poet that is around? there are no other black poets that don't sing about killing cops?... he's (obama) just going after the ghetto vote, thats all...

I think people are making way too big a deal out of this. And Fox is showing their hypocrisy yet again. But, the Fox lovers don't like talking about that.

fox does things to promote their ratings, as long as people know this, they know that there is always a little (or big) slant in it.... same as all news stations...

Not that I think these videos will change your mind... but laughing at the hypocrisy of Fox is reason enough to watch.


Interesting,

There were a couple points he had that made me scratch my head. Fox condemning Common in the news and then saying how great and upbeat he is in an interview, "your music is very positive. And you're known as the conscious rapper"

And the Johnny Cash reference was pretty interesting as well...

However, There was one thing said in the below clip that I didn't hear before. Common supports two convicted cop killers and is invited to the White House during National Police Week. And is there the night before the White House has police widows come by...
